Novak Djokovic is disqualified.

I'm shocked that Djokovic has now probably lost his chance of becoming the all time greats and possibly well I doubt he will catch Roger Federer's most grand slams titles.

Perhaps due to the fact that the situation at the US Open was developing in his favor, he became nervous and lost control over his behavior.

He hit the line judge with the ball. It wasn't during the draw. Could such an accident be worthy of such punishment?

He was punished according to the rules. I don't like him as a player. He plays with very strong punches. I love watching Andy Murray play, he works great all over the court.

a year's disqualification. ?????? omg.... His career might had been destroyed , probably , Then fine by me , it's all good , the fine is good , the disqialification from the tournament , I mean , the penalty could be far worse , a lot far worse than this ..couldn be ??? Right????:stoned:

For a deliberate blow to any person on the court, a penalty of disqualification for a year is possible. The Federation monitors the prevention of boorish behavior at competitions.

All sports have rules if you don;t enforce them why have rules.

Disqualification after this unintentional episode is too severe a penalty.

Perhaps really harsh. But it is impossible to separate punishment from the degree of damage done. In such a case, the tennis federation and organizers need to conduct an investigation and a court hearing to consider the case and make a decision.:icon_thum

Novak is out of luck. Many players during the rally get into the judges, but if this happens to Djokovic, everyone will remember the US Open again and again.

The man was hitting the ball to the ball boy/girl. No intention or frustration as misrepresented by the media. This was a shocker of a decision by the umpires. That line judge certainly couldnt have made it look worse.

Hi all!

Maybe it's a punishment for saying phrases that wake up people a bit, I also talk about vaccines, food, or other topics. Greetings

Nole strikes again, he's going to kill all the judges!

It is not in vain that they want to introduce a hawk-eye control system instead of judges.

 

[gabryyyel31]

Nole hit a lineup referee also yesterday in match against Khachanov. But this time there was no intention to be punished.

Nole strikes again, he's going to kill all the judges!

Now that's funny!

No Bologna

Never heard of him.

 

[Mike491]

It was totally an accident, but it hit the line judge so he got disqualified.

 

[korbal29]

I watched the video carefully and you can see that it was his intent to hit the line judge. The decision was very harsh: you couldve fined him but not disqualified him. Even though I am not the great supporter of the joker,he is not a dirty player, you could tell from his reaction that it was an unfortunate incident

 

[4give4live]

What nonsense is this? She didn't sue him? Djokovic is the coolest, funniest and most good-natured person in the entire sports world. The one who made this decision is a complete idiot.

 

[gazdagleszek]

The problem

The problem that they can hurt someone seriously so have to be very careful. With the other player, with the judges With everybody.

In my opinion it was too severe punishment for Djokovic. As everybody saw he did not do that by purpose and he hit the ball without the power. Then he apologized in front of judge. So disqualification is too severe I guess it should be a warning.

 

[gallora]

It seems that Djokovic was never able to recover from the incident. Let's wait for the next season.:icon_sant

 

[Zirkzee]

he really didn't do it on purpose. he didn't even look. Everything went stupid

 

[Geyomobama]

What thats my main man...how sway, this is mental. Im completely outraged

 

[Jackmagic]

IMO zero tolerance for this incident as to set an example if players do intend to do this on purpose they will know what they're in for

i saw the clip totally unintentional he didn't even look in her direction when he hit it pure bad luck could had missed her by few inches and it wouldn't be the news.
